    3Overview 3To connect your machine to your wireless network, we recommend you to follow the steps in the Quick Setup Guide using WPS or AOSS (Push Button Configuration). By using this method, you can easily connect your machine to your wireless network.Please read this chapter for additional methods on how to configure the wireless network settings. For information on TCP/IP settings, see How to change your machines network settings (IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway) on page 3.

    Note To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close

    to the WLAN access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer, or USB for the fastest throughput speed.

    Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one connection method can be used at a time.

    Before configuring wireless settings, you will need to know your Network name: (SSID, ESSID) and Network Key.

    Network menu 5The Network menu selections of the control panel allow you to set up the Brother machine for your network configuration. (For more information on how to use the control panel, see the Basic Users Guide.) Press Menu, then press a or b to choose Network. Proceed to the menu selection you wish to configure. (For additional information on the menu, see Function table and default factory settings on page 38.)Please note that the machine is supplied with the BRAdmin Light utility, Web Based Management or Remote Setup 1 applications, which also can be used to configure many aspects of the network. (See Other Management Utilities on page 6.)1 Not available for DCP models.

    TCP/IP 5

    If you connect the machine with a network cable to your network, use the Wired LAN menu selections. If you connect the machine to a wireless 802.11 b/g network, use the WLAN menu selections.

    Boot Method 5This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address.

    Auto mode 5In this mode, the machine will scan the network for a DHCP server. If it can find one, and if the DHCP server is configured to allocate an IP address to the machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, then the machine will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is available, and it is configured correctly, the machine will take its IP address from the BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is not available, the machine will scan for a RARP server. If a RARP server also does not answer, the IP Address is set using the APIPA protocol. After the machine is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for the machine to scan the network for a server.

    Static mode 5In this mode the machines IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address.

    NoteIf you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the Boot Method to Static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the Boot Method, use the machines control panel, BRAdmin Light utility, Web Based Management or Remote Setup.

    Control panel setup 5

  • Control panel setup

    26

    5

    IP Address 5This field displays the current IP address of the machine. If you have chosen a Boot Method of Static, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the machine (check with your network administrator for the IP address to use). If you have chosen a method other than Static, the machine will attempt to determine its IP address using the DHCP or BOOTP protocols. The default IP address of your machine will probably be incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme of your network. We recommend that you contact your network administrator for an IP address for the network the unit will be connected on.

    Subnet Mask 5This field displays the current subnet mask used by the machine. If you are not using DHCP or BOOTP to obtain the subnet mask, enter the desired subnet mask. Check with your network administrator for the subnet mask to use.

    Gateway 5This field displays the current gateway or router address used by the machine. If you are not using DHCP or BOOTP to obtain the gateway or router address, enter the address you wish to assign. If you do not have a gateway or router, leave this field blank. Check with your network administrator if you are unsure.

    Node Name 5You can register the machine name on the Network. This name is often referred to as a NetBIOS name; it will be the name that is registered by the WINS server on your network. Brother recommends the name BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx for a wired network or BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx for a wireless network. (xxxxxxxxxxxx is your machines MAC Address / Ethernet Address.)

    WINS Config 5This selection controls how the machine obtains the IP address of the WINS server.

    Auto 5Automatically uses a DHCP request to determine the IP addresses for the primary and secondary WINS servers. You must set the Boot Method to Auto for this feature to work.

    Static 5Uses a specified IP address for the primary and secondary WINS servers.

    WINS Server 5

    Primary WINS Server IP Address 5

    This field specifies the IP address of the primary WINS (Windows Internet Name Service) server. If set to a non-zero value, the machine will contact this server to register its name with the Windows Internet Name Service.

  • Control panel setup

    27

    5

    Secondary WINS Server IP Address 5This field specifies the IP address of the secondary WINS server. It is used as a backup to the Primary WINS server address. If the Primary server is unavailable, the machine still can register itself with a secondary server. If set to a non-zero value, the machine will contact this server to register its name with the Windows Internet Name Service. If you have a primary WINS server, but no secondary WINS server, simply leave this field blank.

    DNS Server 5

    Primary DNS Server IP Address 5This field specifies the IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server.

    Secondary DNS Server IP Address 5This field specifies the IP address of the secondary DNS server. It is used as a backup to the Primary DNS server address. If the Primary server is unavailable, the machine will contact the Secondary DNS server. If you have a primary DNS server, but no secondary DNS server, simply leave this field blank.

    APIPA 5With this setting On the print server will cause the print server to automatically allocate a Link-Local IP address in the range (169.254.1.0 - 169.254.254.255) when the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the Boot Method you have set. (See Boot Method on page 25.) Choosing Off means the IP address does not change, when the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the Boot Method you have set.

    IPv6 5This machine is compatible with IPv6, the next generation Internet protocol. If you want to use the IPv6 protocol, choose On. The default setting for IPv6 is Off. For more information on the IPv6 protocol, visit http://solutions.brother.com/.

    Note If you set IPv6 to On, turn off the power switch and then turn it back on to enable this protocol. After you choose IPv6 On, this setting will be applied to both the wired and wireless LAN interface.

    Ethernet (wired network only) 5

    Ethernet link mode. Auto allows the print server to operate in 100BASE-TX full or half duplex, or in 10BASE-T full or half duplex mode by auto negotiation.

    NoteIf you set this value incorrectly, you may not be able to communicate with your print server.

    Fax to Server (For MFC-7365DN, MFC-7460DN, MFC-7860DN and MFC-7860DW: available as a download) 5

    The Fax to Server feature allows the machine to scan a document and send it over the network to a separate fax server. The document will then be sent from the server as fax data to the destination fax number over standard phone lines. When the Fax to Server feature is set to On all automatic fax transmissions from the machine will be sent to the fax server for fax transmission. You can continue to send a fax directly from the machine using the manual fax feature.To send a document to the fax server the correct syntax for that server must be used. The destination fax number must be sent with a prefix and a suffix that match the parameters used by the fax server. In most cases the syntax for the prefix is fax= and the syntax for the suffix would be the domain name of the fax server E-mail gateway. The suffix must also include the @ symbol at the beginning of the suffix. The prefix and the suffix information must be stored in the machine before you can use the fax to server function. Destination fax numbers can be saved in the One Touch or Speed Dial locations or entered using the dial pad (up to 20 digit numbers). For example if you wanted to send a document to a destination fax number of 123-555-0001 the following syntax would be used.

    NoteYour fax server application must support an E-mail gateway.
